OJ Simpson’s lawyer Malcolm LaVergne revealed this week that the former NFL star’s cremated remains have been turned into jewelry.
LaVergne, who didn’t want to say exactly what kind of jewelry The Juice’s ashes were made into, did tell TMZ that the jewelry, was split up among his Simpson’s four adult children, Arnelle, 55, Jason, 54, Sydney, 38, and Justin, 36.
The lawyer said he had the children’s approval to create the jewelry out of OJ Simpson’s remains and pay the $4,243.06 it cost to to cover the cremation, jewelry and death certificates.
It’s unlikely that any of the kids will comment on their dad being made into jewelry as they all signed nondisclosure agreements in Simpson’s final days.
OJ Simpson, who died owing more than $100 million to the Goldman and Brown families after being found civilly liable for the murders of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson.
While he was alive, Simpson paid less than $135,000 of the millions he was ordered to pay the families by the court.
LaVergne, who was named executor of OJ Simpson’s estate, initially balked at the Goldmans receiving any money after the football star’s death.
“It’s my hope that the Goldmans get zero, nothing,” he said. “Them specifically. And I will do everything in my capacity as the executor or personal representative to try and ensure that they get nothing.”
He would later walk back his statement, saying, “In hindsight, in response to that statement that ‘it’s my hope they get zero, nothing,’ I think that was pretty harsh. Now that I understand my role as the executor and the personal representative, it’s time to tone down the rhetoric and really get down to what my role is as a personal representative.”
Last week, Malcom LaVergne claimed to TMZ that at this point, O.J. Simpson’s estate is virtually worthless after the state of California filed a tax lien against the estate for $572,402.69.
